Building My Team - Virtual or Live?

[John D.]

In the last few months, my daily work has all but gone virtual and has been a very successful and efficient change that is likely not to revert. As I'm beginning to develop my real estate team (agent/s, contractors, accountant, lender, etc.) should I limit myself to finding partners only in my immediate vicinity that I can meet with in person? Likewise, should I only have team members who are well versed in virtual meetings and online systems of organization and project plans? What are the pros and cons of each approach?
